About Aeroroot:
After a world-wide search, Aeroroot was selected and competed in the finals of Fortune Magazine's 9Th Annual Corporate Battle of the Bands at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, OH on October 3, 2009. Aeroroot was established nearly 5 years ago when the four band members decided to form a band for the company Christmas party at Frontier Natural Products in Norway, IA.

About "Flood Them With Love":
Flood Them With Love was established to help flood survivors with immediate needs. The group has raised over $80,000 plus over $100,000 through its partner, Horizons. The group is made up of volunteers with 100% of donations going directly to flood survivors.
P.S. - One of the members of the band is Steve Krusie of Cedar Rapids. It's great to hear that Steve and his band mates are involved in this community benefit.
